Fifteen faces across New South Wales are grinning from ear to ear after their syndicate scored $1.3 million in the weekend’s Saturday Lotto draw.

The 15-member syndicate named ‘SY14 Same Num’ held one of the four division one winning entries nationally in Saturday Lotto draw 4519, drawn Saturday 9 November 2024. Each division one winning entry pocketed $1,280,804.05.

In addition to scoring division one, the syndicate’s System 14 entry also scored division three 48 times, division four 420 times, and division six 1120 times, bolstering the winning group’s total prize to $1,356,217.45.

Each syndicate member collected a share worth $90,414.50.

However, some syndicate members may have yet to realise their $90,000 windfall as their entry was not registered to a player card or online account, prompting lottery officials to urge players to check their tickets as soon as possible. Shares into the group syndicate, set up by Keppel Street Newsagency, 53 Keppel Street, Bathurst, were also sold at 12 other outlets across New South Wales:

  • Belmont City News & Gifts, Belmont
  • Burwood Plaza Newsagency, Burwood
  • Canley Vale Newsagency, Canley Vale
  • Devonshire Street Newsagency, Surry Hills
  • Harrington Plaza Newsagency, Harrington Park
  • Keppel Street Newsagency, Bathurst
  • Lucky U, Sydney CBD
  • Margaret St Newsagency, Sydney CBD
  • Midway Newsagency & Post Office, Denistone East
  • Rooty Hill Newsagency, Rooty Hill
  • Saigon Vietlott, Bankstown
  • St Marys Newsagency, St Marys
  • World News, Sydney CBD

Keppel Street Newsagency owners Mr Urvish Damwala and Mr Abhishek Jariwala said they were ecstatic to hear their team had sold a division one winning syndicate entry and hoped the winning streak continued.

“We are so excited! We’ve been playing the same numbers in the syndicate for two months and we knew it was going to win soon!” they said.

“We had a couple come in Sunday morning that held a winning share but had no idea. When we told them the great news, they started crying happy tears.

“Last time we sold a division one winning syndicate entry was in October last year and we also sold a 1st Prize in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot just a few months ago.

“Since we took over ownership, in just 21 months, we’ve sold five division one and first prize winning entries.

“Thank you, Bathurst, for supporting small business and congratulations to all the winners!”

While some of the syndicate members held registered entries and have been notified of their win, The Lott spokesperson Khat McIntyre said some of the winning group might still be unaware of their good fortune.

“We’ve been reaching out to those syndicate members who registered their tickets to their player card or online account. However, some of the syndicate members held unregistered entries and may not yet know they’re part of this winning group,” she said.

“If you purchased a share in a syndicate for the weekend’s Saturday Lotto draw, today’s the day to check it! If you discover you’re holding a winning share, call The Lott on 131 868 to start the prize claim process!

“This is also an important reminder for players to register their lottery tickets to a player card or online account, so if they are to score division one, we can reach out to them with the winning news.”

The winning numbers in Saturday Lotto draw 4519 on 11 November 2024 were 30, 39, 6, 37, 5 and 43, while the supplementary numbers were 45 and 17.

Across Australia, there were four division one winning entries in Saturday Lotto draw 4519 – one in New South Wales, one in the Northern Territory and two in Western Australia.
